Conflict of interest, please also see commons talk

Hello Urbansmash. It is reasonably clear from your chosen username that there is a potential conflict of interest with the articles you have recently created and edited. As far as I can see your editing has been quite proper, so this is not a complaint of any kind, just a heads-up about things you need to consider. I'll follow this message with some more boilerplate which contains useful links.

Others will edit these articles and no editor has any "editorial control" over the content. Content evolves according to established consensus and a few more-or-less widely practised conventions.

Please (continue to) be very careful to present content from a neutral point of view and avoid a promotional tone. You can suggest changes on an article talk page if you are in any doubt about some content. Please (continue to) provide reliable independent sources for all added content.

Please also have a look at this talk section on commons and respond there. --Mirokado (talk) 22:38, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Mirokado. I have made every effort to keep the tone, style and delivery of each article I create as neutral as possible. I am very happy for articles to be reviewed, critiqued and edited by the Wikipedia community according to its terms, standards and conditions.

I look forward to working with you on future articles.

Welcome!

Hello, Urbansmash, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Miss Caribbean UK, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
